An OPPORTUNITY THAT SHOULD
NUT BE MISSED.

VIVA w AAcCAW'
The Mechanics Fair, which will
open in Portland October 6, will be
visited BY fully $4,000 persons, mos.
Of whom will be Of the wealthier
classes, and who will come from all
pasts Of California, Oregon, Wash.
ington Territory, Montana, British
Columbia. and Idaho, for the purpose.
It will therefore afford q splendid op-
portunity to advertise any goods, wares
or merchandise; and this opportunity
will be seized upon by the leading
businesses of Oregon aud the North
west. even though the cost be we'll
up in the hundreds for each individual
business or firm.
But the management OF the Fair,
realizing the fact that one Of the most
promising industries OF the North.
west is the mining industry, are en-
deayoring to make amends for past
neglect by securing such = mineral
oRisal display as will prove a credit
to vs.. To that end they solicit the
loan Of specimens from any source.
The Fair association will pay the
freight to and from Portland land
expressage in case of valuable speci-
mens) and be responsible to the own
ers against loss. All they ask is the
use OF specimens, which will be re-
turned in good order at the close Of
the fair without cost to the owners
All persons who have minerals which
they are wiling to lend should CON-
n,upicats at once with Mr.. A. S.
Whiting, Superintendent, Portland,
Oregon, or send direct to him with
explanatory letter.
This Is an opportunity which should
not be neglected.; and inasmuch as
quite q number Of specimens are al.
ready at Mccormick bank, HALEY,
vesy little additional effort would be
required to make the display so high
y creditable as to throw all others in
20 the shade. Only 4 few more
"shuoks" would be required; then
TIA wholo shoNld he forvardad hy
freight, With the request that they be
returned. THIS would involve no ex,
psnse. - the freight will be paid
both ways from Portland.
But the time Is very limited, as the
Fair will open October s. Wha
mining man will take hold, and q
once?

WOOD RIVER WORSE OFF THAN
EOCTn AMERICA.

Captain Guyer, who has just re.
turned from the interior OF South
America, says that it requires 81
ounce ore, down there, to pay OK.
psusss. This Is better, by six to 10
ounces, than on Wood River. Here
1t least 60ounce ore is required to
pay expenses, and if the ore Is re-
frsotory the additional expense is
frequently ~ much as 20 ounces
more, or 80 ounces altogether. And
yet, Wood River enjoys many facili-
ties over South America. 1t Is con-
psoted by rail With all the markets OF
the world; provisions, machinery and
supplies OF all kinds cost much less
than 10 South America; in fact. as
between the two countries, the ad.
vsntaqes seem immessurably on the
side Of Wood River. Why, then, is
It that Il costs SO much more to pre-.
pare for sale and market our product
bore than II does there?
This 10 . question that our niue.
owners should consider, with the view
Of reaching = solution; and, when
tbst solution shall have been reached,
70 take steps TO remedy the evil. Tn.
less something Of tho kind is done,
70 can never hope 70 zee our mines
really prosperous.

The Press and Dakot goes SO far

he finds he has made one, referring, OF

understood that the report of the in
specting officer relative to the absepoe
OF these utensils of war settled the
matter for all time to come, as he recon-.
mended that Dakota be given credit for
the entire issne and the account thus
balanced. The matter seems to have
been revived and the supposed prior
settlement ignored. The general gov
ernment wants the guns and Dakota is
unable to deliver on the demand. Why
not turn in the arms now in possession
of the territorial militia, receive credit
for them and draw new gums. There
is plenty of evidence that Ordway pro-
